EarthTek - From Fryer to Fuel (February 2026

Industrial Solutions

Overview

If you run a kitchen in DFW, there’s a good chance your waste grease has passed through one of Keegan Gardner’s trucks or processing sites. As General Manager at EarthTek , the industrial servicing company’s hauling arm, Keegan and his team keep restaurants, schools, cities, and other facilities flowing by pumping and hauling grease, grit, sand, and lint out of traps before they become expensive emergencies. From grease trap collection and transportation to recycling and disposal, EarthTek specializes in the “messy middle” between your drains and the city’s infrastructure. This Q&A pulls back the curtain on how Keegan thinks about fats, oils, and grease (“FOG”), why used cooking oil matters for both compliance and sustainability, and what every kitchen should know about the “invisible infrastructure” under their feet.
